The application of mindfulness in meetings appears to be one of the hot topics in our current environment, but what does mindfulness related to meetings actually mean and how can we all get onboard with this inspiring concept?

Let’s discuss meetings.

By show of hands, how many of us enjoy, appreciate, and/or value meetings, specifically several meetings a day, and/or week? Anyone? Any hands up in the air?

Our world has become riddled with meetings all tied to our electronic calendars on a daily or weekly basis. One thing that seems to be consistently agreed upon is that meetings can be a waste of time, are exhausting and create anxiety for the tasks going undone while attending these meetings. Our minds drift elsewhere while banter is happening among colleagues or when presentations are lasting longer than anticipated.

Have you ever considered a wilderness destination for your company meeting or retreat? Has an eco-resort in Costa Rica, glamping in Montana or a dude ranch in Colorado ever been tossed around as possible meeting or incentive destination? What about adding an outdoor team building activity to bring your attendees into nature for your next conference?

Every year on the 4th of July, cities across the US go all-out to celebrate our Nation’s Independence Day with an astounding display of red, white and blue explosions that fill the sky. Whether you are watching from a backyard barbecue with your family or with thousands of others at a large city display, you’ll undeniably find the colorful show in the sky to be an awe inspiring spectacle.
